well recieved a RFE notice today via email....only sent package off around 3 weeks ago, does this seem soon? Any info on how it works - after they receive info back does an interview date come etc?? Thanks!! Hope its nothin too complicated, i'm thinkin its to do with my medical as I didn't have my vaccination records to send (i've got them now), hopefully its not the sponsor stuff as we used a co-sponsor...anyway we'll see!

If you didn't send the vacinnation form, then I'm betting that's what the RFE is for. I didn't have an RFE, so I can't really tell you how long it will be that you'll hear from them after you return it. I got my NOAs about 3 weeks after I sent off the packet. Then recieved my biometrics about 2 weeks after that. Then after my biometrics were done I got a notice for my interview about a month later (with the interview being just under 2 months later).

But it really can vary depending which state your in and your case.

Fingers crossed you'll hear something soon, Sammy!

Congrats, wolf. :) Although, like me, I imagine your probably not likely to see the EAD before your interview. I got told at the interview that it was approved, but I'd never get a card since the GC negates the need for it. I had my interview on day 93. So really, I should have gotten the EAD a few weeks before that, but ah well.

Hope the papers for AP will reach you soon! Will you be visitintg the UK when you get them? Or is it a just in case, measure?

Thanks Huffy, I'm due to fly out 30th November for a week. Still undecided if I'm going to go or not but more than likely will so that I can see the family before Christmas.

It's weird, I have no desire to go there, yet my hubby can't wait until we go for 2 weeks next May!

That sounds like fun. :)

I'd love to be able to fly back, but until I start working we won't really have the money to afford it. But my mum and sister are coming over for Thanksgiving in November, so that should be fun. :)

I'm using up my return ticket from when I moved over. It means I have to buy another return ticket but at least it means I'll go back at least once a year.

My parents come over twice a year to go to Florida so we'll either go down and see them there or they can come up for a week. It all works out quite well.

You'll have a great thanksgiving then! How exciting. You can't beat a family visit. :)

Yay! My greencard arrived today. :) Nice to finally have some proper US ID, although I never did see my EAD. Ah well.

:) Just glad to have it. How is everyone else doing?
